Strong partners in the birth space are so needed. Whether that’s dad or a doula, someone who can speak for mama and hold their ground when she is vulnerable and deep in her labor is CRUCIAL. Mamas, tag your birth team so they watch this! | Built To Birth

Back labor is rough!!! But these positions help! Why?? Because they are using gravity to help move baby into a more optimal position that takes the pressure off your back (often back labor is due to baby’s back being on mama’s back). Plus, these positions don’t restrict your pelvis from expanding to make more room for baby. PLUUUSSS these positions give your birth team access your back and booty to apply comfort measures to help you cope. | Built To Birth

Your fears don’t go away if you don’t confront them, they come out when you’re most vulnerable. An empowering birth doesn’t come from being fearless it’s about holding more power than those fears do over you. Acknowledge your fears. Sit with them. Feel uncomfortable with them. Ask yourself why you’re afraid of those things. Keep digging till you get to the root. I *THOUGHT* I was afraid of tearing during birth. But what I was really afraid of was birthing on my back, being coached to push, feeli

😬 When the jaw is tight, the pelvic muscles tend to mirror that tension, making it harder for baby to move down and out. A soft, yielding pelvic floor is what allows baby to descend and be born. To help this process —> Soften your jaw, relax your face, and let your body yield. Not only is this going to provide relief from the intensity of your surges, but it will be opening the pathway for your baby ✨Learn more about how your body works with your baby in the Built to Birth course—link in bio✨ |
